Tyreek Hill: I'd put up 175 yards and 2 TDs on Prime Deion Sanders

Tyreek Hill believes he would take Deion Sanders to school if the Pro Football Hall of Fame cornerback was playing in today’s NFL. While appearing on the Million Dollaz Worth of Fame podcast, the Miami Dolphins wide receiver was asked if he put up 100 yards against Sanders if both of them were in their primes.

“I’m putting 175 on Deion, easy. 175, two touchdowns, Prime Time,” Hill said. Hill then explained why he would have a big advantage over Sanders.

“Prime was a GOAT though, but you gotta understand, they played a lot of man-to-man back in the day,” he said. “I feel like generations have changed, and receivers have changed. We’ve got so much stuff, and our generations so many crazy movements and we know all this crazy stuff.”

Hill also said size would give him an advantage. “I’m quicker, more agile, I can move a whole lot, quick-twitch guy, I can catch screens,” Hill said. “It’s a whole lot that goes into a game, so I’m not saying I’m gonna put the whole [175] up by going deep or running an actual route. I’m catching screens, I’m doing whatever the game needs me to do to get yardage on Deion.”
